El Cuervo y la Zorra
(Ediciones A. Saldaña, 1999)
"Once again, things come together from different times and places. In Salamanca in 1986, I found a simple pop-up from a publisher I did not know. Sixteen years later I found a French die-cut presentation of LM done by ...
The Man, The Boy, and The Donkey
(Albert Whitman & CompanyAlbert Whitman & Comapny, 1958)
A red cloth cover has the title and images of a donkey and a boy. As elsewhere in her Whitman books, Katherine Evans uses a crayon-like style, alternating black-and-white and colored spreads. Young Peter is the first to ...
The Man, The Boy, and The Donkey
(Albert WhitmanScott, Foresman and Company, 1958)
By special arrangement with Albert Whitman & Company. This edition adds to my copy from the 1969 printing a pictorial cover, pictorial end-papers reproduced from facing pages at the center of the book, and a list facing ...
One Good Deed Deserves Another
(Albert Whitman & Company, 1964)

The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse.
(Troll Associates, 1979)
Cute but simple figures. Many of the drawings lack color and definition.
Wie die Maus den Loewen rettete
(Artemis Verlag, 1979)
Very well done, with beautiful detailed illustrations. A good example of contemporary work with a single fable (and in another language).
Androcles and the Lion
(Faber and Faber Ltd, 1971)
A great find in a store on Charing Cross Road that did not think they had any Aesop. The faces are excellently portrayed throughout. The story uses thumbs up well; it serves rightly in the cover picture. Excellent ...
The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse: An Aesop Fable.
(Rand McNally, 1973)
Large and inexpensive kids' book in big format with simple and sentimental pictures. I do not see much here to use.
Harry and Shellburt
(Macmillan, 1977)
A delightful little book heavy on greens for watching and for eating. This is second generation Aesop: the original tale is told and then re-enacted in a new way. A stick in the road is meant to give Harry a wake up ...
